Chapter 924: 910, Confidential Information Leakage (1) Chapter 924: 910, Confidential Information Leakage (1) âQuan Jingwu, calm down. If you jump down there, what will Seventeen and the others do? Jian Qing is missing, and if something happens to you, how is she supposed to cope when she gets back?â Black Jack pulled Bai Jue back and pressed on his shoulder, his voice heavy with persuasion.
Quan Jingwu closed his eyes, and when he reopened them, his captivating purple pupils were imbued with unmelting ice.
He put his bracelet back in his pocket and took out his phone to make a call.
âSend someone to the beach below Burial Soul Cliff.â
Meanwhile, Jian Luo sent a message to the Nether Army, telling them to hurry to the beach around Burial Soul Cliff to search for someone.
Zhan Mingyan looked down at the unfathomable sea beneath, the roaring waves sending chills down oneâs spine.
Jian Qing, where on earth are you?
âQuan Jingwu, where are you going?â Jian Qing finished sending her message and saw Quan Jingwu leaving. Fearing he might do something impulsive, she quickly asked.
âTo find her.â
Her, he couldnât afford to gamble.
He had to go find her himself, it would give him some peace of mind.
âIâm going too.â Jian Luo understood his thoughts. If he couldnât sit still, how could Quan Jingwu?
The group hurried up the cliff, then rushed down just as frantically.
The terrain here was treacherous and complicated, especially the sea around the four sides of the cliff top, making it even more difficult.
With the sea stretching in all directions, even searching was no simple task.

âMy lord, although this knife wound didnât hit a vital spot, you still lost a lot of blood. You need to be careful, the doctor said the wound must not be exposed to water,â Ada said emotionlessly.
On the sofa, Shen Hua sat bare-chested, his shoulder wrapped in a bandage, a faint trace of blood soaking through it.
He tapped his fingers lightly on the sofa, his eyes dark and gloomy.
âInform them to start making a move against Jian Group and JK International.â
With Jian Qing in trouble, the Jian family had lost its backbone, and at the same time, Quan Jingwu would surely be preoccupied with Jian Qing to care for the companyâs affairs. Now was the best chance for him to take down both groups.
Ada, who always followed his orders, hesitated for a moment upon hearing his decision, âMy lord, doing this⊠what about Second MasterâŠâ
Ada fell silent under Shen Huaâs gaze.
âDonât worry about him,â Shen Hua said flatly, his hand touching the bandage on his shoulder, his eyes turning a shade darker.
Ada, âYes.â
âSend a message to our people in Beijing to evacuate as quickly as possible.â
After all, Beijing was Quan Jingwuâs territory. Quan Jingwuâs men had been closely tracking their movements, and at this critical moment, their Beijing base would likely be compromised if Quan Jingwu started investigating.
âUnderstood,â said Ada.
Shen Hua waved his hand, and Ada bent over before turning to leave.
Shen Hua pinched the bridge of his nose, his brows tightly furrowed.
âMy lord.â
Ada, who had just left, came back in a hurry, a rare look of urgency on his usually expressionless face.
âWhat is it?â Shen Hua asked with his eyes closed.
âMy lord, confidential company documents have been leaked, and the company is in chaos now,â Ada spoke rapidly.
Shen Huaâs eyes snapped open, âWhat did you say?â
âThe news just came in; confidential company documents have been leaked.â
âShen, Yan!â
His voice was through clenched teeth, heavy with fury.
Shen Hua stood up, lightning flashing in his eyes. He grabbed the clothes beside him and began putting them on as he walked towards the door.
âWhere is he?â
Ada, following beside him, hesitated briefly then realized he was asking about Shen Yan. He quickly said, âThe Second Master is at his villa in the suburbs.â
The door was pushed open, Shen Hua finished buttoning up, and strode out intensely.
âPrepare the car.â
âYes.â
On the way, Shen Hua made several calls to Shen Yan, but the result was always the same, no one answered.
âDamn it.â
He lifted his hand and smashed it against the car window, producing a dull thud.
Hearing the noise from the back seat, Ada kept his eyes on the road and drove carefully.
In the suburbs, the air was fresh, and the villas were lined up one after another, each with its own style.
âCough, cough, cough.â
The violent coughing broke the silence of the living room.
Shen Yan lay on the sofa, his pale face flushed abnormally red from the coughing, as he clutched the position over his heart, his lean body curled up into a ball.
âCough, cough, coughâŠâ
Aâer returned from outside, heard the coughing from the living room, and ran in quickly.
âSecond Young Master, whatâs wrong with you?â
He squatted beside the sofa and saw his pale face, quickly saying,
âDr. Kesen said you shouldnât get too agitated. Iâll go get you a doctor now.â
âWait.â Shen Yan grabbed his arm, struggling to sit up.
âHave they found him?â
Aâer opened his mouth to speak, but just then, an angry voice came from outside the door.
âShen Yan.â
âSecond Young Master, the eldest young master is here, what should we do?â Recognizing the voice of the visitor, Aâerâs expression changed slightly.
The eldest young masterâs visit at this time was definitely because he knew about the corporate secrets leak from the group. He must be coming to settle accounts with the second young master.
Shen Yan waved his hand, âYou go and prepare the car first.â
âSecond Young Master, but what about youâŠâ Aâer was worried.
âDonât worry, he wonât do anything to me,â Shen Yan said calmly as he straightened the wrinkles on his shirt.
Aâer took one last look at him and turned to leave.
Just as he reached the door, Shen Hua came in with Ada.
He lowered his head and respectfully said, âEldest Young Master.â
âAâer, youâve really grown bolder,â Shen Hua halted his steps, gave him a cold glance, and huffed lightly.
Donât think he didnât know about what Ayan had ordered him to do behind the scenes.
A turncoat.
Aâer kept his head down, silent, while Shen Yanâs voice came over, âAâer, you go outside first.â
Aâer nodded at Shen Hua, then walked past him and left.
Ada glanced at him, then shifted his gaze back to Shen Yan, his eyes showing a hint of complexity.
âShen Yan, are you behind the leak of the groupâs confidential documents?â
âYou came here already convinced that it was my doing. Since thatâs the case, why bother asking me?â Shen Yan replied in an even tone.
Remembering the crisis the group was now facing, and seeing his indifferent attitude, Shen Hua flew into a rage, stepped forward, and grabbed him.
âShen Yan, do you realize what youâre doing? Do you hate me so much that you have to destroy everything weâve worked for?â
If it werenât for the fact that he was his brother from the same mother, based on what he had done, Shen Hua would have gladly killed him already.
âOf course I know what Iâm doing, Shen Hua. Iâve told you, youâll pay the price, and I mean what I say,â Shen Yan said contemptuously, his voice cold, âDonât think I donât know, with Jian Qing in trouble now, itâs only a matter of time before you make your move on the Jian Group.â
Taking down the Jian Group through ruthless means was exactly Shen Huaâs style, after all. He was just stirring up trouble in advance to mess with his plans.
Shen Hua glared at him with a dark look, âYou bastard.â
He swung his fist at Shen Yanâs face. Shen Yan didnât dodge; the iron-like fist struck his mouth, and a faint taste of blood spread inside it.
